I am one of those moms who enjoys being with my kids so much that I will go on two spring breaks just because two kids have different spring break schedules. Can’t they all just coordinate their schedules? The bad thing about these spring breaks is that they both go to ASU. One is in law school and the other is an undergraduate. And they STILL have different spring breaks! Ugh!
Oh well, more driving time to crochet on baby blankets:)!This blanket is taking quite a bit longer than I anticipated. I didn’t remember the double ended crochet stitch going so slowly, but it does. And I have another one to do…
Oh well, it is worth it. The blanket has lots of texture and lots of little holes for fingers and toes. I love how it is different colors on the front and back. The instructions for this stitch are here if you want them.
The drive through the spring desert was so beautiful. The flowers were purple, yellow, and orange. I just love road trips. I especially love springtime in the desert road trips:)!
Last week we did Disneyland. This week we spent a few days in Las Vegas. We do Vegas different than probably most everyone. I did not spend one penny at the casinos. Not one! But we did enjoy a few shows. We went to the Blue Man group and the Cirque-Ka
We loved the shows, but especially liked our hikes in Red Rocks Canyon just outside of Las Vegas. It was beyond beautiful!
We did two small hikes. One in the Red Rocks area and one to Willow Springs. Both were easy, short hikes that everyone could enjoy.
Those red sand stone rocks were beautiful!! We even spotted a caterpillar nest! I wonder what kind of moth or butterfly they will be?
The hike to the waterfall was shady and cool. It was only about 1.5 miles of fairly easy trail.
And lastly we spent some time at the Las Vegas Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints Temple.
We had a super SWEET trip, but I am definitely ready to stay home for a while!
